With tl,s issue the ENTERPRISE begins its sevsu tn year as sound and saucy as of yore. During the six years just com pleted it has been the consistent and persistent champion of the best interests of Pinal county and Arizona, and has been fearless in it's dsnunciation ef those who have offered oppositicr to the ad- vancsmsnt and development of the country Naturally, the boldnsss and candor of its utterancss havs provoked bitter snmities and subjected its editor to vast amount of abuse, but in the face of all opposition the ENTERPRISE has gone straight ahead, trae to itself !, calling spade a spade aud heart a heart, no matter whose corns were pressed or whose ambitions were tawarted. We believe its enemies will concede this fact. That it has been in strumental in attracting to this county capital and settlers hundreds will admit that it has defended the homes and rights of our people none can deny. In the future 1t will be the same outspoken and impartial defender of this county that il has been in the past, and it's friends may rest assured it is here to stay, no matter what its enemies may do. With thii brief announcement we sail into oul seventh year as cheerful and "cheeky' as any quill driver that ever warmed aE editorial chair.

OvR esteemed contemporary, the Star, new wails over the fact that the Gov srner does not publish notice of rewards for ths ares. and conviction of crimi- rals in the Star There are two reasons to justify the Governors course. The frEt and principal one is he desires the notices to be seen and read, and there fsrs selects such papers as have general circulation. The second is, the fact that the Star, by it's incorporate and unwar- rantabls abuse of the chief executive, has forfeited all right to his patronage.

One OF the funniest incidents OF any
railroad wreck that ever saw-and there
are always funny things that one remem-

man who was on my train when it ran
through a misplaced switch at Riverside
and collided with a freight train standing
on the side track. 1t was terrible
smash up. Amos McDaniels, the engi-
neer, saved his life by jumping from his
engine before it struck the freight train,
but Andy McGlenn, the fireman, was
caught between the tank and the boiler
head of the engine, where he was held
fast, alive, but with his legs both crushed
and cooked As soon as the passengers
found that not one of them was hurt they
swarmed out and began helping to get
poor Andy out of his terrible prison l
noticed one passenger who worked like
hero lifting and pulling and straining to
get Andy out, yet all the time using one
hand as if it were crippled. l noticed it
several times, and paid a good deal more
heed to it than you would expect a man to
under such circumstances; but, don't you
know, under the most exciting conditions
mans mind will hit upon some such lit
tie thing and never let go of it, Well,
noticed that man never opened his hand
to take hold Of whatever he was going to
lift, but put his wrist under it and kept
his thumb and fingers together.

An aaorer of the ..Form Divine"

A lively writer, who has visited the
studios of both Henner and Carolus Du-
ran, in Paris, says: Painter Of the femi-
nine form, which his very pencil seems'to
caress upon the canvass, Henner is an
adorer of the mysterious being, angel or
sphinx whom We call woman. One day
a girl, with long blonde hair streaming
over her neck and shoulders, was seated
before him on the huge platform draped
in red which occupies the middle of the
studio. Suddenly Henner arose, left his
easel, went over to the model, took her
tresses in his hands, kissed them religious

A Skowhegan electrician has invented a
new electric light, which he is confident
will revolutionize electric lighting all over
the world. He has been fostering his
electric scheme and burning midnight oil
for over year The light is now per-
fected, and patents in America, England,
Germany, France and Russia have been
applied for. This invention is creating
quite stir where it is understood. The
new light was tested in the Skowhegan
electric light station one evening not long
since and il is said its superiority over
the ordinary arc system was apparent to
many of the citizens of Skowhegan who
were eye witnesses to the experiment.
The light is produced by spiral carbon,
entirely different to anything heretofore
used by electricians. 1t is claimed that
this new electric light Will produce a
brighter light than has yet been found.
II is what is called the mechanical feed.
1t is claimed by the inventor that not only
is his light brighter than electric light
nowadays, but there will be no quivering,
Pickering or kissing TO the new light, OF
which greater things are predicted than
have heretofore seemed possible in the
realm of electric Gght.-Lewiston (Me.)

4 Maine whirlpool.

The most dangerous whirlpool on the New
England coast is that near Deer Island point,
opposite Eastport inPassamaquoddyb bay. At
times, when the tide backs up as ainst Il strong
wind, great roaring is heard, the whirlpool,
fully an acre i'll extent, swellS up TO the
height Of twenty feet like a great hill Of
yeast, then falling back forms deep, black.
Internal looking boil. The fishermen in the
neighborhood shun the whirlpool as they
would the sulnhurous pit, and some of them
harbor superstitious notions about it which
add to its terrors. a man who duSen't know
the'river thoroughly has no business to go by
it in small boat, said an old Eastport fisher
man to the writer, for it is mighty treacher-
Gus, and sometimes Looks the slickest when it is
the most dangerous \ schooner loaded with
plaster once went down in it with her crew,
and no more was heard Of her or the the men
